Floyd Mayweather Jr vs. Manny Pacquiao Master Discussion Thread

[Dirk Diggler UK]

They're not really bringing him up out of the blue though, are they? They've both been asked questions about each other for the past 5 years now constantly.

Seems out of the blue to me. Floyd isn't mentioning Pac at all.

reported for not using master thread...

What master thread idiot? This doesn't pertain to any one specific fight at all.

Why would Floyd use Pacquiao's name, when he is avoiding a fight with him?

When you're CURRENTLY avoiding someone, it makes perfect sense not to discuss them under any circumstances.

OBVIOUSLY.

I guess not everyone is smart enough to understand that, so I have no problem explaining it to them, and you TS.

Here are the most recent articles pertaining to one side mentioning the other side. As we all know, both Pac and Floyd have fights coming up. It's been claimed that they both use each other's names to promote their fights but that doesn't seem to be the case here. It's only Manny and members of his team/posse bringing up Floyd completely out of the blue. Take a look for yourself.

Not one peep about Pacquiao from Floyd or members of his team anywhere to be found.

Dude, TR and Team Manny need to make it look like they want to fight Floyd. He'll talk his way into an offer than do what he does best-refuse the fight.

Floyd keeps taking jabs at Pacquiao during his press conferences. Floyd-Maidana 2 press conference..."he's got Marquez problems".

Seems out of the blue to me. Floyd isn't mentioning Pac at all.

Most of your links are snippets from one press conference where reporters inevitably ask Pacquiao about Mayweather.

I agree that it's used to help hype the fight but both sides use each others names. For example, Sam Watson was talking about the Pacquiao fight happening a few weeks ago.

Floyd himself is very precious. Reporters run the risk of being blackballed if they ask him Pacquiao questions.

He refused 50/50 back in 2009 over a few drug tests. Can't believe he made such a ****** decision. But then again, it could have been a smart decision if there was something he was hiding. Testing dirty could have ruined his career.
